Hmm I see what you mean. I'll keep trying more things, including a touch-up like yours. I probably should give him a neck, if not adjust his armor to make him look more majestic. So far this has been the hardest portrait haha.

Alright, been pretty busy but I did manage to squeeze some time in to try some things with King Tycoon.



What do you think? It's definitely more majestic, and he actually has a neck. The hard part about working on these so long is that I get so used to staring at them that I can't tell what's good or not. It's like saying the same word over and over until it feels weird. Basically I have to stop working on the picture for a while and come back with a fresh perspective because I forget what it looks like. Anyway, I tried this one at the proper size and it seems pretty good, so even if you feel it's "good but not great" I'll probably go with it and maybe someday later try to tinker with it.

Didn't noticed that it has been quite some time since my last post (almost 2 months).

I guess you haven't had time to work on this hack, just hope that you didn't forgot about this nice project, magicpants29 :)

Haven't forgotten, just haven't had any time, sadly. My schedule will change this summer and I will have loads of time then, so if I haven't finished by then, I will definitely be able to just crank the rest of it out.

Just to give you an idea, I really only need to draw and hack in Cid, Mid, Xezat, Kelgar, and Gilgamesh. Exdeath's portrait is going to be left as-is (at least for now) since it looks just like his battle sprite.

So taking about a percentage, you're about 60% done, right?

That sounds fairly good. Keep it up magicpants29 :)

Mmm, the original portraits they have the glasses the other way around (Mid is the one with them & not Cid).

Anyway, Cid having them makes him look more scientist, which is good. As for Mid, I always think about him as a bookworm, so it would fit his personality to have big round eyeglasses... Other than that, they are good :)

Ah, I wanted to maintain loyalty to the sprites, otherwise I probably would've. Mid's original portrait makes me want to punch him and take his lunch money.

Drew Kelger and Xezat. I'm pretty happy with how Kelger came out, though I can't decide between two styles of clothes. Leaning a little towards the left one, but I need more input.



And Xezat, which seems alright. Not as good as Kelger's, I feel, but acceptable enough. The idea was that he's kind of a joker like Galuf, but keeping his sacrifice in mind, I can't make him too goofy looking.

Real quick, here's a couple Gilgameshes.



And Exdeath (decided to draw him anyway, basically copying the old portrait but updating the style.



Still looking for input, until then I'll work the others into the code.

Hi there magicpants29, it's been a while.

Kelger & Xezat look comical. I really never cared for either of them, so I say their portraits are ok.
Kelger's left portrait looks more like its original (because of the shirt's neck). However, his color is grayish (perhaps because of old age).

For Gilgamesh's portraits, I like how the eyes on the left look like, but I also like the smile on the right (looks like he's having fun, like with his last speech against Necrophobe)

And Exdeath's one looks great, I really liked that one :)

Well good thing you like them because I spent the last two days cramming to get their small resolution portraits done!



Just gotta hack them in now, and at this rate the patch will be ready by tomorrow night.
